In my opinion, it's not a matter of if, but when. How we deal with this is critical. Do we establish some basic income to offset the work being done by the bots? Do we lease the bots privately to individuals who then derive some passive income from their employ? So many options on how this goes, we need to be innovative both in terms of the tech but also in how we deal with the social implications of its existence. Things can go well.

Maybe this is obvious, but even very stringent measures would not have much effect over this timescale. The entire supply chain moved to China over the course of like 15 years, it will probably take similar time to move anywhere else.
> In July, the Federal Communications Commission banned new foreign-made robots such as humanoid robots and four-legged robot dogs, along with robot vacuum cleaners.
Wow, this is news to me! I’m glad I got my robot vacuum cleaner before
